Telipogon diabolicus (Orchidaceae, Oncidiinae), a new species from southern Colombia
A new species of the orchid genus Telipogon, Telipogon diabolicus, is described and illustrated. The information about its habitat is provided. The novelty resembles Telipogon tabanensis and Telipogon guacamayensis and it is characterized by the translucent flowers, the glabrous, distinctly clawed petals, the transversely elliptic lip, and the gynostemium ornamented with long setose hairs on bo...
متن کاملDeep ocean species discovered
As human languages are increasingly dying out, the discovery of a new one is striking. Nigel Williams reports. The UN's atlas of endangered languages lists around 230 that have become extinct during the past 60 years. And it is now widely agreed that around 3,000 languages worldwide are endangered and 200 are critically endangered with fewer than 10 speakers. Even in Europe, Karaim, in western ...
متن کاملBiases in biodiversity: wide-ranging species are discovered first in the deep sea
Calculating global estimates for total species richness is fraught by the uncertainty in estimating the number of species left to be discovered. The deep-sea is widely regarded as one of the largest sources of uncertainty in these calculations, since so much of this realm has not yet been explored. Most estimates of species left to be discovered are reliant on previous rates of species descript...
متن کاملThe first species of the spider genus Episinus in Colombia (Araneae, Theridiidae).
The spider family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833 is currently represented by 121 genera and 2,387 species distributed worldwide (Platnick, 2014), of which 52 genera are recorded in the Neotropical region. The genus Episinus Latreille, 1809 has 57 described species but only 29 (50.8%) are known by both sexes (Platnick, 2014). The type species of the genus, E. truncatus Latreille, 1809, was describe...
متن کاملGenetic Variation and Species Boundaries in Calopogon (Orchidaceae)
Morphological and habitat similarities among the five species of the terrestrial orchid genus Calopogon have led to nomenclatural and taxonomic confusion. The taxa are marked by subtle character differences and little apparent reproductive isolation. Here we investigate allozyme diversity at the species level and the partitioning of genetic variation within and among species and their populatio...
